Chapter 1680 – The Intel
*****The auctioneer’s mind erupted with shock as the significance of his words sank in.Not many people knew about Nightshadow Sect, but Celestial Pearl certainly did. As an organization with access to an extensive information network, they had records of the ancient sect and the terrible tragedy that had brought it to ruin.They knew how its members had been forced to flee their pocket dimension, losing their home and the foundation upon which their entire sect had been built.They also knew what had happened to its former patriarch.He had suffered devastating injuries, had his cultivation ruined, and was eventually imprisoned in one of the most terrifying prisons in the country. His fate had been so grim that many people believed his death marked the final chapter of Nightshadow Sect.After that, the world had gradually stopped paying attention to the remnants of the fallen organization.Many powerful factions believed Nightshadow Sect was finished. Its members had been scattered,
Chapter 1679 – “I'm The Patriarch”
*****Mistress Ayra’s heart skipped a beat, and an overwhelming emotion surged through her chest so suddenly that she struggled to contain it.‘Sir Patriarch…’Her eyes glistened with unshed tears.She hadn't known what information Xavier intended to request. Even if she had tried to guess, she would never have imagined that his first priority would be finding the scattered members of Nightshadow Sect.She might have expected him to ask about powerful enemies, rare cultivation resources, hidden treasures, or information that would directly benefit his own advancement. After all, he had just secured access to one of the most influential information networks in the world. There were countless ways he could use such an advantage to strengthen himself.Yet he had chosen to ask about the surviving members of their sect.Xavier had not forgotten them.Even with all his strength and the countless opportunities available to him, he had not allowed the promise of rebuilding Nightshadow Sect to
Chapter 1678 – “I’ve Been Scammed!”
*****Xavier had no interest in spending his days repairing portals whenever someone else decided they needed him. However, if Celestial Pearl was willing to give him access to useful resources and information without demanding anything in return, refusing would be unnecessarily foolish.Naturally, he paid particular attention to the part about having no responsibilities. He had already learned that people loved disguising obligations beneath impressive titles, and he wasn't about to accept a golden collar simply because someone had decorated it beautifully.Once he was certain that the position would not bind him to Celestial Pearl or impose responsibilities he had no intention of fulfilling, Xavier finally accepted.The moment the auctioneer heard his response, she felt as though she had just won the jackpot.Finally!After all the frustration, disbelief, and near-spiritual exhaustion Xavier had put her through, she had managed to secure a result she could actually celebrate.He had
Chapter 1677 – The Auctioneer’s Offer
*****The auctioneer pointed at Xavier, her face twisting with disbelief. For a moment, she looked as though she were genuinely afraid that continuing this negotiation might cost her the last remaining pieces of her sanity.“Could we at least establish a minimum quota?” she demanded. “For example, if we discover a portal that meets certain requirements, Celestial Pearl would have the right to summon you, and you would agree to inspect it. Surely, that isn't unreasonable!”From her perspective, she was asking for the bare minimum. If Celestial Pearl couldn't count on Xavier to examine even a few particularly important portals, what exactly was the point of hiring him?Xavier, however, seemed to find the proposal just as unreasonable as she found his refusal.“Then I guess Celestial Pearl and I aren't meant to work together.”As he spoke, he began rising from his chair.There was no anger in his expression, nor did he attempt to threaten or pressure her. He simply appeared ready to leav
Chapter 1676 – Xavier’s Terms
*****It wasn't only the auctioneer who was deeply shaken by Xavier's response. Sage Myron and Mistress Ayra were arguably even more stunned, and neither seemed capable of deciding whether to laugh, panic, or question everything they thought they knew about the man they had been following.The three of them stared at Xavier as though they had just discovered that he possessed multiple heads, each with its own questionable understanding of common sense. For what felt like an eternity, none could bring themselves to speak.Xavier had just been offered the opportunity to become the personal disciple of an S-rank fighter, an existence who stood at a legendary height that less than one percent of cultivators would ever reach in their lifetime. Yet he had dismissed the offer as though someone had invited him to attend an uninteresting dinner.He hadn't even considered it.As a direct disciple, Xavier would effectively become an extension of that S-rank powerhouse. The master's protection, i
Chapter 1675 – The Auctioneer’s Frustration
*****Mistress Ayra’s heart raced as the possibilities unfolded in her mind.If Xavier became the direct disciple of an S-rank powerhouse, everything would change.Rebuilding the Nightshadow Sect would no longer be some distant ambition they had to struggle desperately to achieve. With an S-rank master standing behind Xavier, who in the world would dare obstruct them?Their enemies?Those people would probably flee before Xavier even finished announcing that Nightshadow Sect had returned.Even the resources she had once considered impossible to obtain could become readily available. The sect could rise again, stronger and more glorious than before, and the dream Grandpa Zev had entrusted to Xavier would finally have a foundation solid enough to support it.Mistress Ayra could almost see it happening.Unfortunately for her, Xavier did not share even one percent of her excitement.He merely sat there, looking at the auctioneer with the same laid-back expression he had worn throughout th
